I was just looking through the features of a car and i saw it featured an "ISOfix Child Seat Anchorage - Rear Only" and im not sure what it is. Help please?

Thanks in advance. =D

it sounds like a seat belt that wont come loose unless an adult loosens it.
it also sounds like some sort of car seat that a kid cant mess with.

ISOfix, also known as LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren) in North America, is a child seat anchoring system. ISOfix seats are built with steel anchors such that newer child safety seats may be quickly and securely attached to the seat.

It's a replacement for the old style of securing child seats, using the car's seatbelts.

The wikipedia page on the subject has a good picture of the anchors. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isofix

What I've seen is a couple of points welded into the seat/back junction that match specific manufacturers seats that makes it more secure than the standard belt anchoring system for a child safety seat.

It is a recent design that makes the seat more like a part of the car than an additional, strapped in, system.
